Pringle hasn’t signed yet. It’s not over for him. We had Mauigoa until Ruiz dropped a huge money bag. You are saying it’s not looking good for this kid based on what you are hearing in March? Give me a break man. Do you ever have anything good to say?

The next time he has something good to say will be the first time.

Ask Alabama’s defensive line for their opinion and get back with us.

I agree with your point, but his point is valid also. Darnell Wright got drafted because of how good a coach Elarbee is, but Elarbee didn't recruit Wright.
We will start to see soon how good Elarbee is at evaluations because pretty soon it will all be his recruits. He's had a couple drafted but Wright and Cade Mays were both Pruitt recruits.

When Heupel was being mentioned as the coach at UT, I went to YouTube to watch UCF offense. The one thing that sold me on Heupel was the way his 3 star OL was pushing everybody off the line of scrimmage. His OL coach was Ellerbee and I became a believer.

Elarbee’s coaching and development seem pretty proven to me. It’s the recruiting that is still a question mark.

Agreed to a degree, although ultimately winning a national championship will end up if Tennessee can pull the blue chip beasts up front. Glenn can coach but that’ll only get you so far in natural development in this conference and Vs the national powers. If he can land the higher upside more naturally gifted guys then Tennessee should be set due to his development abilities. As seen by DW and other blue chippers that were raw but developed really well by Glenn. Also his 3 star linemen at UCF is great in the AAC… you don’t want that at a place like Tennessee in the SEC. Two completely different levels

I don’t think he was suggesting getting AAC level.

Yep, people don’t seem to realize that Darnell Wright was considered a first round draft pick out of HS. He was just poorly developed up until Elarbee got here. It wasn’t like Elarbee turned him into a stud out of nowhere. It was always expected. Friend just wasn’t able to develop him to that and Elarbee was. The more blue chippers we get on the OL the more likely we are to have another Darnell Wright. The numbers don’t lie, 5 stars end up being first round picks at a higher percentage than 4 stars and 3 stars or below and it’s not particularly close

There are currently zero 5* OL in the 247 composite rankings for the ‘24 class. Hope we can land one of those zero!!

5 stars go at a higher % because they all have the physical traits and there are way less lol. 2 out of 5 is a better % than 39 out of 100
